  • Title: Corporate welfare: the third stage of welfare in the United States.
    Author: Stoesz D.
    Journal: Soc Work; 1986; 31(4):245-9. PubMed ID: 10277801.
    Abstract:
    Corporate involvement in social welfare represents a third stage in the evolution of welfare institutions in the United States, following the voluntary sector and the welfare state. An examination of the largest health and welfare corporations reveals rapid growth and consolidation in all markets--nursing homes, hospital management, health maintenance organizations, child care, and home care. The author considers the implications of continued expansion of corporate welfare for social workers and their clients.
